Modules

The frameworks for the Facebook SDK in Swift are organized in the same way that the Facebook SDK for iOS is.

They also currently depend upon the Facebook SDK for iOS, although this may change at some point in the future.

FacebookCore

Depends on FBSDKCoreKit.framework and Bolts.framework.

The following types are included, with enhancements for Swift:

AccessToken

ApplicationDelegate

AppEvents

A myriad of improvements, including type-safe built-in AppEvents, an AppEvent struct, and more.

GraphRequest

You can now implement your own type-safe GraphRequests, including native-typed results.

SDKSettings

Logging behaviors are now implemented as a type-safe set, based on Swift enums.

Permission

Are no longer stringly-typed (string-based), but separate types for read and write permissions (also includes a built-in permission list, which includes most common permissions by default).

FacebookLogin

Depends on FacebookCore.framework and FBSDKLoginKit.framework.

The following types are included, with enhancements for Swift:

LoginManager

Now uses the type-safe permissions from FacebookCore, and has constructors with LoginBehavior and DefaultAudience, instead of requiring manual setting of properties.

LoginButton

Can no longer change permissions after creation, helping to enforce using a single login button for a given set of permissions.
Note that LoginButton is not intended to work with interface builder or storyboards at this time. We may re-address this in the future.

FacebookShare

Depends on FacebookCore.framework and FBSDKShareKit.framework.

The following types are included, with enhancements for Swift:

LinkShareContent

Now a struct, and has a proper initializer enforcing required properties.

OpenGraphShareContent

Now a struct, uses type-safe OpenGraphPropertyName and OpenGraphPropertyValue, as well as structs for OpenGraphObject and OpenGraphAction.

PhotoShareContent

Now a struct, and better type-safety for properties on it.

VideoShareContent

Now a struct, and better type-safety for properties on it.

GraphSharer

Now a generic type, that can handle any type of content.

ShareDialog

Now a generic type, that can handle any type of content.

MessageDialog

Now a generic type, that can handle any type of content.

GameRequest

Now a struct, contains proper type-safe enum for Recipient, Result.

GameRequest.Dialog

AppGroupRequest.Dialog

AppInvite

Now a struct, use a type-safe Promotion property, instead of separate promotionCode and promotionText.

AppInvite.Dialog
